Q1 Dashboard

Michelle and Todd presented the Q1 Dashboard noting that current trends and projections look favorable.  Enrollment is down due to lower lottery figures and more attrition than normal.  School management is not alarmed and trying not to overreact based on a one year trend. The per pupil number DESE is projecting is more than offsetting the lower enrollment figures.
